Buyer intent data with context to support hyper-targeting for Go-To-Market teams

SANTA BARBARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HG Insights, the global leader in market intelligence for technology vendors, announced today the introduction of HG Insights Contextual Intent, a solution designed for companies seeking to leverage the power of customer buying patterns.

Combining intent signals with firmographics and technology intelligence such as installation, spend, and contract data, the Contextual Intent solution includes bidstream data that’s triangulated, enriched, and scored for precision, signal strength, and accuracy. Each week, this solution takes into account nearly 2 billion intent records, leveraging firmographic data and technology intelligence on 120+ million verified tech installs across 14,000+ products, solutions, and services.
